Improved egg-beater



waited giedre ttent @Mitica Letters Patent No. 103,057, dated J'uly 5, 1870'.

IMPROVED EGG-BEATER- The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent nd making part of the same.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, TIMOTHY EARL, of the town of Smithfield, county of Providence and State of Rhode Island, have invented' a certain new and uset'ul Egg. Bea'ter.

My invention relates tothe -novel construction and arrangement of the several parts composing the beater and I do hereby declare that the following specification, taken' in connection with the-drawing furnished and forming a part of the same, is a true, clear, and exact description thereof.

The drawing represents, in perspective, one of my improved egg-beaters, complete.

A is the handle;

B is a bevel driving or crank-gear attached to the handle.

C and C are suspension rods, attached, at their upper ends, to the lower end of the handle A. They are composed of a continuous piece of wire, and, when in position, they are slightly nearer to 'each other at ,theirtops than at their lower ends.

D and E are revolving beaters, mounted side by side upon the rods C and C'. .They are each made of a flexible strip of sheet metal, iu an elongated oval form, and are4 provided at their tops with gear-wheels, tol which they arc attached.-

F is a pinion-gear, mounted on a stud projecting downward from the handle A: This gear'has aline of straight teeth, which mesh into the gearsof the beaterstD and E, and a line of beveled teeth to gear witht-he teeth of driving-gear B.

Upon' 4turning the driving 'or crank-gear, the two beaters are revolved rapidly in one general direction. At the nearest point of connection betweenthe two,

the cutting-edges of the beaters pass each other in opposite directions.

The novelty of my arrangement lies in the peculiar construction, vby means of which it occupies less space and is more economical 'in construction than other beaters of the general character.

I do not broadly claim the double beaters, as theyhave been used before.

I do claim- The beatersJD land E,monnted upon suspension rods C andO', operated bythe driving-gear,v and pinion E, when all are'constructed and arranged to operate as set forth.

i TIMOTHY EARLE.
